See Crater Lake from a brand new perspective while participating in this locally organized bicycling event.

Century Riders (100 miles) will start at the Fort Klamath Museum on Crater Lake Highway (Rte 62) at 4,000 ft elevation, and will enjoy the first 35 miles along the valley floor of the Wood River Valley with breathtaking views of the surrounding Cascade mountains and their old growth forests.

This will be a nice warm up for the 3,000 ft climb to the Crater Lake Rim. Century Riders will then continue for another 30 miles of peaks and valleys, and an additional 3,000 ft of climbing, around the lake on Rim Drive.

Finally, riders will enjoy the ride back down to the Wood River Valley and will end the ride with 8 miles of flat roads back to the Fort Klamath Museum.
